Client Users ACL

Client Users ACL

Hello ZoHo-Team,


i'm stuck with portal / client user roles.


There are role on portal users side. One of these is "Auftragnehmer", assume customer in english. This is described in your help system as viewer role. 

I tested it an discovered FULL ACCESS with editing, .... when working with a viewer user?!?


When i use client users, it's described that they have the only role for viewing projects. In my case they see only assigned projects, but also with FULL ACCESS to it.


I'm using "projects" only, without any other applications / portals.


Please let me know how to configure users properly.

This has been one of our main issues to let customers participate on project progress with specific ACLs. Seems not to work? at least without additional packages?


Futher question is about admin and portal owner.

I can see a lot of more menu items at portal owner:

documents, invoices, timesheets, calendar, pages, chat.


How can i enable that for admins too? These are missing for all other users. Which package is missing here?


This menu items should be available for admins and managers as well.

      • Tip: How to print the Gantt View

        Though we move from the traditional project management system (using papers) to an online project management system, we still prefer to have a printed copy of the activities/tasks that are to be done in the project. This way, we can carry the to-do lists with us for the meetings and refer when we are offline.

      • Four types of task dependencies

        "Nothing is particularly hard if you divide it into small jobs."                                                                                                                  - Henry Ford Projects, small or large, are driven by simple work units called tasks. Monitoring standalone tasks might look simple but as the workflow becomes elaborate, tasks may start relying on one another. In project management, this relationship between tasks is termed as "Task Dependencies".

      • Task Inline Editing Enhancement

        Hi All, Today, we have made an enhancement in task inline editing. In 4.0, task edit is moved in a single screen in a pop-up. We designed this in-order to make the task edit across the product to be the same. Let it be in Feeds, Tasks & My Tasks tab, Calendar & My Calendar tab, a click on the task title will open the popup and user can edit the values. Customers pointed us the inline editing was very useful to them & how much they miss that in 4.0. Based on the feedback, we have rolled out this enhancement.
